Look Ma, No Hands!
Hello,
Thought I'd post this for some common feedback, seeing what others thought. When I got this bike, the headlamp had a polished finish but was fairly tarnished and dirty. In my naivety I tried to clean it up with some 00 steel wool, and ended up marring the polish. Decided to go all the way to hide it, trying to mimic a brushed finish, but I've been inclined to try and get it to a more professional looking state.
I've gone back and forth on whether I'd like to polish it again, or if I should paint it instead? Or perhaps half-and-half? Front ring polished, rear painted? Or may be just leave it brushed? Still not decided, and this seemed like the best place for some thoughtful input.
